Select Board weighs transferring surplus fire truck to Highway Department instead of auction
Summary
Select Board members discussed a plan for the Highway Department to convert a surplus fire truck and chassis into a highway vehicle rather than selling it by bid; Jared Bellows will meet with Highway Superintendent Scott Sullivan and report back.
The Select Board discussed converting a surplus fire truck and its chassis for use by the Highway Department instead of putting the vehicle out for bid. Meeting participants said the Highway Superintendent prefers repurposing the truck because the value to the town in reuse exceeds expected auction proceeds given the vehicle’s age.
Select Board member Jared Bellows said he will meet with Highway Superintendent Scott Sullivan and bring a recommendation back to the board. No formal motion or vote to transfer the vehicle to the Highway Department was recorded in the meeting minutes.
